Simple PHP Gallery and Iimage Gallery Playing Together

  • I am trying to use Iimage Gallery (IIG) to insert images into my WP1.5 posts. I have the plugin working and have great results. Props to all involved for a great plugin.

    I, of course, am not quite satisfied. My main gallery that runs all immages on my blog is Simple PHP Gallery (SPG). I love it, but also want to use the quick and simple IIG in posts. Is there a way to call the base image in the <<>gallery<t>> tag, have it display the created thumbnail, but link somewhere else than the base image? I tried to include the desired SPG link like so:

    <gallery crop=”true” crop_center=”true” max_side=”100″ quality=”95″>
    <img src=”https://www.wvofuels.com/wp-gallery/thumbs/strong/_punch.JPG&#8221; alt=”Punching out the 3/4″ plug” />
    </gallery>

    I give on the format for ‘backticks’ or whatever you are supposed to do to avoid the link above. Know that it is supposed to show the code not link to it. ??

    I also tried to use the target idea:

    <gallery crop=”true” crop_center=”true” max_side=”100″ quality=”95″>
    <img src=”https://www.wvofuels.com/wp-gallery/thumbs/strong/_punch.JPG&#8221; target=”https://www.wvofuels.com/wp-gallery/file/strong/punch.JPG alt=”Punching out the 3/4″ plug” />
    </gallery>

    Neither seem to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • I have a simular problem- iimage gallery creates a pure BLACK space for the thumbnail but doe not reveal it- if I click the BLACK space I get the fullsize image. Can’t understand why this is happening.

    an alternative is using Gallery with the WP Gallery plugin allowing you to use thumbnails in post.

    Another idea might be to set the upload directory for images to the SPG folder, so you can add the thumbnails

    Gallery is a bit bloated for my taste- iimage gallery is the closest thing I need but still not exactly what I need. What would be ideal is a small interface, an upload button, the ability to upload a series of images instead of one at a time, the click “create gallery” – and done. All galleries are separated by name and have a unified appearance. Of course a “next” and “previous” button is important (one thing that is missing from iimage gallery).

    iimage gallery is exactly what I need, except it doesn’t work…

    I have pasted the test code from the developer’s web page in to my page and it returns an error.
